Blackburn Spring Play: AIRNESS
March 28 @ 7:00 pm - 9:00 pm
Blackburn’s Department of Music & Theatre will stage the play “Airness” in Bothwell Auditorium.

When Nina enters her first air guitar competition, she thinks winning will be easy. As she befriends a group of charismatic nerds all committed to becoming the next champion, she discovers that there’s more to this art form than playing pretend. From artistic merit to originality to feeling itself, Nina must learn the pillars of air guitar if she wants to compete. There are 7 pillars of air guitar, after all, including the elusive state of “airness.” Will Nina be able to let go and set herself free onstage? A shred-or-be-shredded comedy about the spirit of competition and community found through music.
